    Stir-fried Tomato and Eggs



    Ingredients
    • 5 to 6 large eggs, beaten
    • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
    • Salt and pepper to taste
    • 1 scallion, white and green parts chopped and separated
    • 2 medium tomatoes, sliced into then wedges
    • 1 teaspoon sugar
    Instructions
    1. Heat a wok or large skillet over high heat until a drop of water sizzles and evaporates on contact. Add the cooking oil and swirl to coat the base. Pour in the eggs and cook undisturbed until a thin layer forms on the bottom, about 30 to 60 seconds, then scramble the eggs until they are cooked but still light and fluffy. Season to taste with salt and pepper (I find 1/4 teaspoon salt is good to start.) Scoop out the eggs onto a plate and set aside.
    2. In the same pan, add the scallions whites and stir-fry until just aromatic, about 20 seconds. Add the tomatoes and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, until the juices start to release and the tomatoes wedges are slightly softened but still intact. Sprinkle sugar over the tomatoes.
    3. Return the eggs to the pan and heat for another minute, stirring so they are well-mixed with the tomatoes. Transfer to a serving dish and add the scallion greens on top.

    Tea Eggs



    Ingredients
    • 6 eggs
    • 2 tablespoons (2 bags) black tea
    • 1/4 cup soy sauce
    • 1 whole star anise
    • Water
    Directions
    1. Place eggs gently in a large pot and add water to cover. Bring to boil. Depending on your preference, either 1) remove from heat, cover and let sit 20 minutes or 2) turn to low and simmer for 10 minutes. Drain eggs and let cool (you can speed cooling by giving the eggs a cold water bath, draining and refilling when the water gets warm again).
    2. Using your fingers or the back of a spoon, crack each eggshell all around. The cracks allow the flavor to penetrate, so make sure each eggshell is well and deeply cracked all over.
    3. Place cracked eggs in a pot, ideally keeping in a single layer. Add tea, soy sauce, star anise and water just to cover. Bring to boil. Turn heat to low and simmer for an hour, turning eggs if water gets low. Leave eggs in liquid, as eggs will continue to absorb flavor. Refrigerate when cool.
